In Laparoscopy, tissue is handled by tiny (5mm) instruments under magnified or close detailed view without being handled by humans. The naked eye cannot see this close view of tissue layers and structure. So laparoscopic surgeon can better understand the tissue and does perfect handling of tissue, which is the key factor for immediate postoperative patient recovery.
